Handmade Extending Refectory Table

Here we have an example of a large Handmade Extending Refectory table with matching chairs made for clients in Cambridge. The extending refectory table is made with Fench Pippy Oak. It seats 8 when closed and extends to 12 seats when full open.

The clients required an 8 seater extending Refectory table for every day use but with the option of extending the table to seat 12 when entertaining guests. They also wanted to be able to store the extension leafs separately and not to be intrinsic to the handmade Refectory table that would otherwise interfere with the look of the table.

The handmade extending Refectory table was made in French heavy pip Oak with Square legs and stop-chamfered corners. The Refectory table has a Natural hard wax oil finish.

The client also ordered 8 handmade chairs with Pippy Oak backs which we finished to match the extending refectory table.

Client Comments:

“We are now both back home and have had the opportunity to sit and enjoy the table and chairs which you kindly made us. They are absolutely beautiful and wonderful works of craftsmanship. The chairs are very comfortable with a well designed lumbar support, which I particularly appreciate!

They all look lovely in our new kitchen and make the room complete. We are really pleased with the design, choice of wood (the pippy oak is a thing of beauty – thank you!) and workmanship and would be happy to recommend Quercus to anyone.

Yesterday we had 14 for lunch and used the flaps for our table for the first time – all worked perfectly and everyone comfortable! We continue to enjoy our table every day and are still delighted with everything about it.

Thank you very much for all your care and attention to detail.”
